Frank Burton absolutely BTFO, dropped like a sack of shit
Austin Harris
Tell me about Wilder! Why does he wear the mask?
Isaac Ross
Also this Friday on Boxnation
Boy Jones vs Craig Poxton Thomas Essomba vs Jay Harris
Connor Ramirez
Nice OP, should be like this every time
Although I feel like the European cards should be listed before the North American cards on their respective dates since they'll be on first
Zachary Morales
Probably a slightly stronger card than Hearn's York Hall card
I'll be delighted if both Sky and BoxNation show more Friday night small hall shows this year though
Juan Cooper
Fair point lad good idea, just wrote them in the same order they were in on a different site without thinking.
Jeremiah Lee
...
Jose Price
Lets try that again lol
Does he unlock that once he unifies 4 weight divisions like the BBC claim?
Alexander Miller
That PBC card is fucking stacked, jealous as fuck of the Americans this year since Haymon seems to have decided he wants to save boxing. Might stay up for that, should be fun.
Cooper Richardson
Yeah it's the reverse Roy Jones Jr Heavyweight > Light Heavyweight > Super Middleweight > Middleweight. Golovkin is the end game.
Jack Clark
The only way that Hull show isn't a complete bust is if McDonell get KTFO Tbh.
Ryder Cruz
Eddie said Gavin is bringing 700 from Doncaster, it will be roaring
Camden Turner
Atmosphere will be amazing I'm sure, but the fights won't be. That undercard is a joke and McDonnell is boring as fuck and will be being even more cagey this time round since he's facing some actual power. Hoping for a Vargas stoppage to make life interesting.
Brayden White
Agreed, it looks really dull
Also I hope Campbell vs. Crolla is finally made after their next fights. Campbell is already getting fairly old for a lightweight who depends heavily on speed. I still think he could still be the British #1 in that division
Adam Powell
I was half joking. It will probably be a decent atmosphere but it's a shitty card. Linares vs Crolla is the only decent fight night lined up at the moment, probably all the big fights will be going on box office this year.
Caleb Baker
Couple nominations: Jorge Arce-Hussein Hussein Thomas Hearns-Juan Roldan
Caveman Lee-John LoCicero takes a while to get going but has a GOAT ending...your call on that one.
Post that other shit you wanted somebody to make a call on and I'll watch it tomorrow when I have some time, I'd like to resurrect the banger list.
Adrian Parker
Ugonoh vs Breazeale fight of the weekend, great fight.
Caleb Hall
>Eric Martel Bahoeli vs. Adam Braidwood >Francis Lafreniere vs. Marcus Willis are these people noteworthy at all?
Brody Rodriguez
Not at all, just national level canadian fighters.
Robert Cook
>someone actually did a good OP Nice
Jordan Wood
Doubt Breazeale will offer much resistance
Bute vs. Alvarez will probably be the best, followed by Hurd vs. Harrison
Henry Anderson
Breazeale is 6'7 and took 7 rounds of punishment against Joshua, he's not going to roll over. The winner will be in the frame for a title shot this year
Nicholas Price
Take the Cubanpill
Save your brain from destruction
Julian Hernandez
Joshua so amazing he even skips out Cruiserweight in his domination of 4 divisions. Is there anything #StayingHumble #HardWork and #Dedication can't achieve?
Michael Torres
but looked like a jabroni against Joshua
Grayson Price
If Joshua does the same to Klitschko it will look better in retrospect
Sebastian Jackson
>not having a quarter of hash taped to it
Austin Rodriguez
Izu comes off quite intelligent in his interviews but he couldn't knock out this big stiff idiot
it was Bellew vs Cleverly (I think it's the first one
I'll watch Thomas Hearns-Juan Roldan right now.
Wyatt Adams
Oscar De La Hoya thinks Canelo vs Chavez will break 1 million PPV buys
De La Hoya says the expectations are higher than what Canelo was able to generate on pay-per-view with Cotto. "Expectations are 30 percent more than that," said De La Hoya to ESPN Deportes
William Murphy
I don't think he'll get stopped easily, if at all, but he just offers nothing offensively
Jaxson James
>Thomas Hearns-Juan Roldan it's a bit short too add to the list, 2bh. I think only Waters vs Norris is as comparatively short, but had one of the best rounds of all time which is why I included it.
Levi Brown
I told you a while ago some fight but I don't know if you watched them.
>Kalenga vs Dorticos fight started pretty well, but really deteriorated by the 5/6th round after they both gassed. it also seemed like Kalenga was no where in the fight after the first round. are you the guy who I talked with about Youri months ago? (might've been a French flag)
Justin Ramirez
No I am not that guy. Also Bellew-Cleverly 1 is good but doesn't get my vote.
Parker Evans
"El Gallo Negro" aka The Black Cock #TeamBlackCock
Austin Miller
go back to /heem/
Adam Reed
I don't fuck with mma.
Ian Butler
>Bellew-Cleverly 1 is good but doesn't get my vote. I feel the same way about Hagler vs Mugabi. it certainly had its moments of greatness (especially in the 6th) but it's more solid boxing rather than a spicey-fest. maybe one day we'll compile a list of technical bouts.
also, it's interesting how well Mugabis chin held up against Hagler yet he got sparked out in the 1st(?) against Norris.
Brandon Parker
>Margarito vs Cotto 1 IIRC this mostly Cotto back peddling (rightly so after what happened) so not to spicy.
Kayden Reyes
Does Gerald Washington have a chance?
Adrian Hernandez
Why is everyone pretending they aren't even slightly interested in Bellew Haye?
Justin Bailey
While Cotto backpedaled he won some rounds by volume punching, it was not an one sided fight.
Very few imo.
Bentley Nguyen
>SPORTbible
pls no
Nolan Cruz
I'm saything that the fight wasn't really the head-to-head, shoulder-to-shoulder battle of attrition that I want for the list. remember: the list is to get people interested in boxing, so back-and-forth fights with solid technique with little to no fouling. consider CorallesCastillo as your template.
Leo Sullivan
>Get people interested in boxing
Got it.
Jose Martin
So when Yoka is going to clean up the HW division?
Michael King
is he going to turn pro?
Hudson James
>no Sam Langford vs Fireman Jim Flynn II
Christian Moore
seems to happen everywhere. >blacks who arent 'hood' enough or they "talk and act white"
Jayden Turner
They just have some kind of deal with David Haye where they post about his shit all the time, he's had it since his comeback. Pretty shrewd actually, allows him to target an audience which are largely MMA watchers.
Leo Campbell
He already signed with Schaefer
They will probably move him fairly slowly for the next four years or so
Juan Sanders
If not for ducking GGG would Canelo be well liked around here?
Adrian Young
I like him.
Benjamin Gray
>>Caleb Plant vs. Thomas Awimbono Caleb has one the best footwork of the division. I like this guy
Jose Ross
>Khan's prospects of Pacquiao fight getting BTFO by Bob Arum
top kek, I think Khan is hated by just about every major promoter except Golden Boy
I unironically like Canelo desu. Also think GGG and his camp should shoulder some of the blame for the fight not happening, they could have just accepted the flat fee for two reasons
A: The $10m (or $15m depending on who you believe) would be far more than GGG could hope to get in a fight with any other boxer with the way his profile is
B: If he wins (and I presume his team would be very confident in this?) then this opens up the door to a lucrative rematch with Canelo, where he stands to make more money as now he's in a position to demand a % fee. Additionally, the recognition he'd get from beating Canelo would be such that his popularity would skyrocket, and in turn mean that more boxers are willing to get in the ring with Golovkin seeing as they'd now be better compensated for being knocked out.
Chase Watson
I like Canelo and any figther with good chin and decent power. Latino heritage I guess
Blake Sullivan
I like him, probably in my top 5 current fighters, but the post fight interviews, vacating the wbc, and just stuff outside of the ring makes me think he is a huge diva. Just look at the deal for Chavez, he made a half pound change to the fight just to say he's the one calling the shots
Joshua Diaz
I like Canelo a lot, both sides are equally to blame for that fight not happening yet, just that GGG has managed to get away with no blame
Julian Ross
Offering Golovkin a flat fee is bullshit. I still think it will get done for September though. If Golovkin gets the belt off Saunders then Canelo will run out of places to go
Logan Johnson
So everyone likes Canelo?
Aye that's cool I thought people really hated on him because of the fight not happening, must be the mexicans only.
What about Rigo?
Canelo won't fight Saunders cause the WBO requires a 80-75% split for the champion, and no way Golden Boy settles for that.
Landon Price
He has a pretty aesthetic style, but he is a cunt and a cherry picker and a constant beneficiary of crooked judging so I'd take some pleasure from seeing Golovkin leave him in a heap on the floor
Charles Green
It wasnt a real offer, surely. it was to take the pressure off of themselves.
Media outlets & jewtube channels cant wait to report ANY news on this fight.
Whatever they claimed they had offered golovkin 'shows' intent and now some of the blame falls on team ggg
Lastly, golovkin deserves some sort of percentage as it would be canelo's biggest fight possibly numbers wise & definitely legacy wise.
Canelo needs Golovkin, not the other way around. When push came to shove he gave up his belt.
Austin Gomez
any european guys here who want to stay awake for thurman - garcia?
Ryan Turner
i thought the purse splits were for bids only? im pretty liam smith didnt get a 75% of the purse as they came to an agreement. OR maybe they did and a high majority of ppv went to canelo. Someone who knows pls inform me.
Eli Moore
Yeah and let's not forget that supposed offer was still only for September 2017, so K2 had literally no reason to agree to it right then instead of closer to the date
Evan Miller
>cherry picker >fought Trout, mayweather, cotto, lara, khan, shane and kirkland
ok
Robert Hill
you might be right I was just parroting something I read and I don't recall exactly where.
I'll try
Jonathan Turner
Who will unify the HW division?
Kayden Mitchell
AJ of course
Zachary Thompson
yup once you vacate, shut your mouth, your actions have said more than words ever could.
Carson Cook
Lol, this is one of the best fights of our time. Especially for someone who's never seen it. Fucking Australia.
Nicholas Ross
Lara and Trout I give him credit for taking, but he looked pretty pedestrian in those fights
Anyone would face Mayweather and Cotto
Khan, Kirkland and Shane were cherry picks
Dylan Martin
I doubt it gets fully unified. Too many variables
Tyler Gutierrez
did you even read what I wrote? besides, what constitutes "our time"? post-1999? because the Marquez-Pac quadrilogy is easy the greatest set of match-ups of the new millennium.
Brandon Hernandez
Facing all of those welterweights as someone who weighs almost 175 lbs in the ring is the definition of cherry picking
Owen Evans
Vazquez vs. Rafa Marquez was better
William Thompson
His resume is one of the best currently
Oliver Myers
>lara >117-111 what.bmp
Isaac Cox
That's got nothing to do with cherry picking
Nicholas Wilson
Ok, I need to clarify I like him in the ring, outside the ring is pretty obnoxius. All that talk about the pride of the GUERRERO and you are ducking lil G? C'mon man. And pretty much this >Rigo...I dont now m8. I dont hate the guy, but I have the feeling that he is one trick pony. I need to watch his fights closer to made me an idea of him
Henry Perry
you said "not too spicy"... which is a fucking gay term btw, but its clearly "spicy", it was a fucking awesome fight.
They're in the same ball park. Cotto/Margarito was super dramatic because of the way Margarito endured a world of shit for 6 rounds to turn it around like that. Cotto was beating the living shit out of him the first half of the fight. I really think that fight took more out of Margarito than any other. He took a reet good hiding.
Christian Bailey
>Lastly, golovkin deserves some sort of percentage as it would be canelo's biggest fight possibly numbers wise & definitely legacy wise. >numbers wise
His fight against Mayweather literally sold the most PPVs ever at the time
Josiah Gomez
Hearns angling for the US-UK meme with Wilder if AJ beats Wlad. I don't know what will happen with the WBO title
Adrian Watson
read is what I mean
Carter Martinez
But it was like that. Castillo/Corrales is once in a lifetime. Nothing will probably top something like that for a long time. Cotto/Margarita definitely belongs on the list.
Ryder Cook
AJ vs Wilder (WBA, WBC) Parker/Hughie vs Haye (WBO) Pulev vs Takam (IBF, after Joshua gets stripped)
Jack Russell
What about the prestigious IBO belt?
Parker Torres
is AJ guaranteed to be stripped?
Samuel Bell
If Hughie nabs the WBO then it's never getting unified with AJ
Joshua will be the champion of Sky Sports while Hughie is the champion of BT Sport
Jayden White
Not the fight itself, rather the style of fight: both fighters conceding and covering ring real estate, trading with good speed and power, throwing with decent technique and in combinations, and so on.
Cotto vs Margacheato was fought with Cotto entirely on the back foot, explicitly because he was trying to avoid Margarito and fight using his intelligence and technical ability.
Don't get me wrong, it was a good fight, but a fight just being *good*, or technical, or a display of adept boxing ability isn't necessarily what the list was created for.
Ian Rogers
>Pulev vs Takam
That's a depressing title fight
I'd rather it went to the Gayemaker than either of those gatekeepers
Would be pretty amazing to have three British heavyweight titlists at the same time, and pretty infuriating when they refused to face each other
